Επικριτική προς τον Αλέξη Τσίπρα για την επιλογή του μετά το δημοψήφισμα του 2015 εμφανίστηκε η Πάμελα Άντερσον, εκφράζοντας ανοιχτά τη στήριξη της στον Γιάνη Βαρουφάκη. 

Η σεξοβόμβα των 90s και άλλοτε πρωταγωνίστρια του Βaywatch ήρθε στην Ελλάδα για την πρεμιέρα της εκπομπής «It’s Show Time» με τον Νίκο Κοκλώνη στο Open.

Στην προσωπική της ιστοσελίδα με ημερομηνία 24/02/2019 δημοσιεύεται μια συνέντευξή της που μιλάει για την Ελλάδα, τον Αλέξη Τσίπρα και τον Γιάνη Βαρουφάκη.

Στο ερώτημα αν έχει μάθει ελληνικές λέξεις λέει στην γλώσσα μας: «ΟΧΙ. Ελπίζω να το προφέρω σωστά. Θαυμάζω τους Έλληνες που είπαν ΟΧΙ στο περίφημο δημοψήφισμα αψηφώντας την ΕΕ. Όμως, δυστυχώς, η κυβέρνηση ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, με πρωθυπουργό τον Αλέξη Τσίπρα αποφάσισε να συνθηκολογήσει και την επομένη του δημοψηφίσματος ο Γιάνης Βαρουφάκης παραιτήθηκε».

Στο ερώτημα ποιος είναι ο ποιος σημαντικός διάσημος Έλληνας εν ζωή η Πάμελα Άντερσον απαντάει: «Ο Γιάνης Βαρουφάκης. Είπε ΟΧΙ όταν ήταν υπουργός Οικονομικών και ήταν πηγή έμπνευσης για πολίτες σε όλη την Ευρώπη».

Το δημοσίευμα με τη συνέντευξη στην ιστοσελίδα της: 

You have been in Greece several times. Have you learn any Greek words?

Yes, well… “ OXI “

I hope I’m Pronouncing correctly ? I admire the Greek people who said OXI during the famous Greek referendum, defying the European Union. OXI (“No”) goes back to the days when Fascist were occupying Greece, it was a symbol of Greek defiance against occupation -and it became famous again during the Europes economic crisis, when in 2015 Greece held a historic European referendum where the majority (61%) of the population voted OXI / NO — against an agreement with EUs institutions and banks, which would lead Greece into even bigger debt, and impose “structural adjustments” and austerity (privatizations of public assets). It was the most heroic event in recent Greeces history, thousands of people were on the streets, there was hope, for the first time people felt dignity, by simply saying NO.

But unfortunately, the Syriza (left party) government (with Alexis Tsipras as prime minister) decided to capitulate and the next day of the referendum finance minister Yanis Varoufakis resigned.

Today when you look at Greece, you will see that most of the airports are owned by German companies (Fraport), that the port of Piraeus (part of broader Athens) is owned by the Chinese, that people are even more indebted, there is poverty everywhere, that there is massive emigration of the young population….

so OXI still means something today. It is a symbol which shouldnt be forgotten.

What was the most touching incident that ever happened to you while on an activist action?

I was The International Chair Person of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society for many years. Until I had to focus more on my own foundation living in Europe it was difficult to chair the weekly meetings time difference etc.

Sea Shepherd was eye opening – devastating. The brutal pilot whale slaughter in The Faroe Islands , the capture/slaughter of dolphins in Taji, the baby seal hunt in Canada make me so angry.

The unnecessary brutality and ignorance chocked up to tradition. It’s pure evil bullshit !

And of course extinction which is rapidly rising and we will soon face not only extinction but environmental breakdown. compassion or solidarity in “ordinary life” can also be a sort of activism.

And I’m happy that you can see it on the streets of Greece.

Who is the most important Greek celebrity living today ?

YANIS VAROUFAKIS – someone who said OXI when he was finance minister of Greece and who inspires people across Europe.
